Alla Kachan

I initially sought legal assistance to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Instead, I was persuaded to pursue Chapter 11 for my company, even though I did not fully understand the difference between the procedures and relied entirely on professional advice. The case dragged on for more than three years. Du...ring that time, I continued paying legal fees, yet the matter was never completed. I suffered significant financial loss and prolonged stress throughout this period. When I began to question the situation, I consulted multiple independent attorneys. Their response was surprising — they expressed concern about the strategy used in my case and indicated that my situation could likely have been handled much more simply, significantly faster, and at a fraction of the cost — potentially within just a few months. Based on my experience, the path I was directed toward proved to be unnecessarily complex and extremely costly. It gave me the impression that the approach increased the duration and expense of the case rather than prioritizing the client’s best interests. I did not feel that my interests were placed first. As a result, I lost substantial money, years of time, and trust. For these reasons, I would not recommend hiring this attorney and strongly urge anyone considering this firm to seek independent legal opinions before signing any agreement

I had an initially positive experience working with Alla, decided to not move forward and was charged $3K+ !! Watch out for how reasonable she is and how easy it is (or really lack thereof) to work with her. Unfortunately I had a negative experience at the end. Buyer beware and I thought appropria...te to warn others! There are many lawyers out there and I'm sure would be more capable and reasonable. I would recommend to NOT work with her. I have filed a complaint with the NY Bar as well. If you have the same negative experience, I would suggest you do the same and utilize the rights you have.

Drove almost 2 hours for an in person consultation that cost me $200 only to tell me the same information that was given on the phone. Then when I asked a few questions about the process and her retainer agreement, I was suddenly reccomended to a new lawyer and we "weren't a good fit". Super un...professional, the whole process and operation seemed a little sketchy from the beginning, but that took it to a whole new level. You'd think that a client who was doing his due dilligence and ready to do the work would be welcomed to a lawyer not a burden. Very dissapointed overall, just want this out there so someone else doesn't fall into the same pitfalls.

Alla Kachan signed a contract and request a full payment for it, charged additional payment for filling fees for bankruptcy petition and charged money for opply for pro vac vice to represent me in different state. After she took my money she tryed to offer me insted to be my consultant and send me t...o court myself without representing me and telling me that a crazy state wuth their regulations. I lost money bc of her and hired a best local lawyer in Mn who was able to partially saved me. She is a liar and I am taking her to court for Ethics violations and breaching a contract.
